Is tenant or landlord responsible for cleaning the aftermath of sewage backup in the basement?

Most likely this responsibility lies with the landlord, although, if this is a single family residence, the lease may require the tenant to deal with such things. Also, if the tenant caused the problem, then they might be responsible.
